I’ve only been abroad one time, and there were little gecko/lizard things everywhere, climbing up walls and scurrying across roads, and nobody cared. I was constantly fascinated but to the locals they’re just kinda there.

Bonus question to anyone who visited the UK - was there anything that fascinated you but I’d be taking for granted?

Pic unrelated.

    When that shop first opened, the Wizard was holding a scepter with a giant glass globe. It may have lit up at night, I don’t remember. It was very impressive.

    Not long after it went up, Hurricane Charlie hit, and tore everything up, and the giant globe was destroyed. I would love to see video of it exploding in the storm.

    To this day, they have never replaced the globe.
